TL;DR: The charge-transfer complex generated from the combination of DABCO and sulfur dioxide, DABSO, is a bench-stable colorless solid suitable for use in organic synthesis as a replacement for gaseous sulfur dioxide.
TL;DR: Sulfones were separated by gas—liquid chromatography; the best separations were obtained using Carbowax 1500 and 20-M on Gas-Chrom-Z, a silanized diatomaceous solid support.
TL;DR: An amorphous NiB supported on expanded graphite (EG) catalyst was prepared as an example to show the superior characteristics of EG as a novel carbon support material as discussed by the authors, and the prepared catalysts were characterized by mercury porosimetry, inductively coupled plasma spectrometer (ICP), scanning electronic microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscope (TEM) and selected area electron diffraction (SAED).
TL;DR: In this article, the catalytic hydrogenations of sulfolene to sulfolane over different supported amorphous Ni−B alloy catalysts and Raney nickel catalysts were performed in a batch reactor under pressurized conditions.
Abstract: The catalytic hydrogenations of sulfolene to sulfolane over different supported amorphous Ni−B alloy catalysts and Raney nickel catalysts were performed in a batch reactor under pressurized conditions. The deposition of amorphous Ni−B particles (average Ni−B particle size = 40.5 nm) on MgO was carried out by a silver-catalyzed electroless plating technique. The influence of significant variables, such as the plating temperature and content of potassium borohydride, was investigated in the preparation. The silver and Ni−B loadings in the catalyst were varied as well. The catalysts were characterized by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), inductively coupled plasma (ICP) spectrometry, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and N2 physisorption. The load of nickel on MgO increases with the plating temperature, use of potassium borohydride, and loading of silver. The best Ni−B/MgO catalyst showed a remarkably superior catalytic activity to that of the Ni−B/Ti...
